Thanks Starsong. Do you have any instruction to copy and past an online image or youtube video?When I go on SF with my tablet, I press my finger on a word I want to cut and paste. It highlights with two bubbles at either end. I drag a bubble to include all the text I want to copy. Above the text a bar appears with several options including copy, cut, and paste.
Choose the option. Then go where you want to paste the text. Hold your finger where you want the text to go. A little Paste box will appear. Touch it and your text should paste there.
Hope this helps.
Thanks Trila. Isn't there a way to just copy and paste it without having to download it to your device? I use a keyboard and rarely if ever have to save something from the internet to my computer, that seems to be a big hassle.To post a pix from the internet, first you need to download it to your tablet (or phone)
Thank you RFW. When you copy the link address, how do you see that, copy it and paste it here? That sounds easier than saving it to your device and have to click the posted link for the image to show sounds easy.You can also copy a link address (ending with .jpg, .bmp, .gif, etc.) and paste it here but it will show up as a link that you have to click to show it instead.
Same hereOh dear, I am sorry, Seabreeze....

Yes, it's as simple as that. When done, you just have to click that link and the image will show up in another window.Thank you RFW.

I don't. Didn't read your OP thoroughly, my apologies. It's been a brain draining day.Thanks Starsong. Do you have any instruction to copy and past an online image or youtube video?
Sorry I forgot to mention Youtube.Thanks Starsong. Do you have any instruction to copy and past an online image or youtube video?
Sorry you had a bad day Star. Both my desktop and laptop have keyboards, so that is how I always copy and paste things here. I don't have a touch screen device except for my android cell phone, and I rarely use that for anything but a regular phone call. Too small for me to see and use on a forum, but I'd find a way if I had to. I imagine any easy tips in this thread can be used on the phone too. Thanks for you replies.I don't.

When I want to do anything more complicated than respond to a post I use my desktop or laptop.
Same for me. I don't need glasses all the time but they're essential when I need to do something complicated on a smartphone.Sorry you had a bad day Star.

It really isn't that bad. I download all kinds of pictures, then delete them when I'm done.Thanks Trila. Isn't there a way to just copy and paste it without having to download it to your device?
